Dealing with feelings and emotions
Helping children and young people cope with the information and changes related to the Coronavirus can be a huge challenge. From social distancing and quarantine to school closures and increased awareness of infection and hygiene – there is a lot to process for children and families

Children's sadness can be disguised as:
- Anger — an annoyance with the world or elements in it (e.g., "This stupid remote doesn't work!")
- Resistance — refusing to go along with the "new order," trying to get power and control in a world that feels out of control (e.g., "I'm not doing four math pages; I'm only doing one!")
- Displaced frustration — being frustrated at the situation (e.g., social distancing), but taking it out on something entirely different (e.g., yelling about a bedtime, yelling at a sibling, yelling about what they're having for dinner)
- Roughhousing — taking out feelings in a physical way (e.g., pile on top during a football game)
- Boredom — saying "I'm bored" (often code for "I'm sad")
- Numbness — checking out, wanting to sleep or zone out to TV, wanting to "veg out" on electronics or otherwise ("I don't want to go for a walk! I'm tired!")

Physical Health and Well being
Eating well
Eating well is hard when you are home all day - we are more likely to snack or eat more and we are possibly less active, take a look at the tips on this 'mindful eating' poster to help.
Sleep
Sleep is good for mental and physical health so trying to maintain some bedtime routine should be positive, both for children and adult. 
The school nurse and health visiting team have a revised offer of support

Dental hygiene
Because of coronavirus (COVID-19), all routine dental treatment has been stopped at the moment.
If you think you need urgent dental treatment:
- call your dentist
- use the 111 online service if you cannot contact your dentist or you do not have one
